Tlie Followingr was the Message De- livered by the Mayor at the Meetiuir Mouday Nijrht. Prescott, Ariz., Jan. 11, 1S9S. To the Members of the City Coun- cil, Prescott, Ariz. Gentlemen: In pursuance with the requirements of the City Char- ter. I hare the honor to submit for your consideration tbo following message, covering (1) the adminis- tration of city affairs during the year 1S97, and (2) such sugges- tions as I trust will be of value to you during 1893. The revenues of the citv during 1S97, from all sources, were $21,525,-4- 2, being an increase of $4,310.61 over tho income of 1S9G, while the annual surplur, represented by cash in the city treasury at this date, is 4,237.62, as against S3.781.S6 sur- plus for 1896. As this increase in revenue and surplus has been cre- ated without the slightest addition to tho tax or license rate, but by a more rigid enforcement of police and other regulation?, I cannot but congratulate you and tlie entire corps of city officials on the show-iu- g thus presented. While the surplus in tho city treasury during the last year has been increased, it has been done in the face of extraordinary expendi- tures. These expenditures of an unusual character have been as fol- lows: 1. That occasioned by a thorough and comprehensive investigation of every available means for increasing the public water supply at a cost of 5940. 2. The purchase and laying of new water mains, bvdrauts. etc. at a cost of S2.910.10. 3. The installation of public street lighting at a cost of S930.oO. 4. The survey and establish ment on the principal streets of per- manent grades, with a view to the future improvement of such streets, at a cost of 5203.50. While this has been done, the dis- bursements for tho purchase of new equipment for the fire department, of a city safe and other property, in constructing street crossings eta, have been unusually large. Although the expenditures set forth above in the items covering the investigations for increasing the water supply any surveys of streets for grading purposes, have been made solely to arrive at and present to the public in an intelligent man- ner the cost and advantages of such projected works, the manner in which both projects have been re- ceived by the public leaves but lit tle doubt that such improvements will bo accomplished facts before the close of the present year. Both are urgently required, the. only problem remaining is by what means and the cheapest manner in in which each can be secured. In additien to the exercise of the same rigid economy which has char- acterized your official acts during 1897, 1 deem it wise to suggest that during the present year every effort be made by you, 1. To permantly Eettle tho ques tion of future water supply ot the city. 2. To thoroughly investigate and decide on the practicability of a public sewerage system, and 6. To inaugurate an intelligent system of street grading, which is greatly needed, and wmcn delay constantly tends to make more coin-plicat- ed and difficult of settlement. In endeavoring to carry these sug gestions into effect T would advise that every effort be made to secure tho cc operation and assistance of our fellow citizens bv inviting their active aid and advice. During the last year they have shown a most commendable spirit toward aiding the city government in advancing any measure that might benefit the municipality. Everything possible should bo done to encourage this feeling and to remove tho erroneous but too prevalent idea that, once elected, the duties and obligations of the voter ceases toward public officials, and instead everv citizen should be made to feel that such of-- 1 ficials constitute merely the machin- ery to carry into effect'tue policies most advantageous to all, aud in the shaping of which policies tho best results can only be secured by every citizen taking a vigilant and activo interest in publio affairs no matter how seemingly small such affairs may be. "With a view to promoting more general and universal interest in the city's political well-bein- g, not the least accomplished during the year 1S97, were the amendments secured by legislative enactment to the city charter, which provide: 1. For granting tho right of sui- - frage to all taxpavers without re gard to sex. 2. For making all officers ve instead of appointive, as previouslv been the case, aud 3. For requiring any ordinance or act of the city council to bo sub mitted for ratification or rejection on duties o; mayor over year ago, am Very respectfullv, Wx. O. O'Neill, Mayor.

Smith reports that when he andhis companions wore on thoir way out from Dawson, they wit uessed the most beautiful sight he ever saw in tno Heavens. It was in November, aud he said that the sun would barely show itself above the horizon till it would again retreat below it and ramain hidden for twenty-- one or twenty-tw- o hours. Day, including twilight, would last only about three or four hours. In the early morning hours, on several nights, ho said, most brilliant 1 ight, of various hues, occurred in the heavens. He said he could describe it only as having the appearance of an immense umbrella, with ita tau- ter directly overhead and ita sides extending down in streams of light to within a short distance of the horizon. 1 ho outer edges of it were not even, but appeared just liko tho ribs of au umbrella with the slightly curving edge ot tne cioin Deiween them, only that the entire thing was composed of streaks of light. At first thev went unable to account for jit, but its repetition on several days, jusr, ueiore ine oreas oi uay, nnauy convinced them that tho singularly beautiful phenomenon was uone other than the Aurora Boreal is, or what is known as northern lights. Mr. Smith said he had frequently seen this phenomenon at his old Indiana notno, out seeing only a small portion of it, there was no comparison to it as witnessed near the Arctic Circle, whore they were at the time. Speaking of the native dogs used in transportation in that country, he says that they do not know anything but work. That they have none of the instincts or nature of domestic animal found in lower latitudes and have no special affection for their master or owner more than for an entiro stranger. They are good uatured and work well, out are friendly to every one. They have to be coustantlv chained up, though, to proveut them from running away, as he says thoy are smart enough to realize tnat their lot is to and try to eecapo ft whenever opportu nity presf nts itelf. Indiana Consent To A Railroad Right of Way As the latv recently passed by courre?s irivinj; the richtof way to the Gila Valley, Globe and North ern railroad lo cross the San Car los reservation, provided that the consent of the Indians to the prop- ositions must be obtained big conference was held at San Carlos on February 8. Although some of the chiefs had previously been op- posed to the railroad being built, at this meeting after the law of con- gress was read and explained to them it was found that the Indians were practically unaLimous in favor of giving their consent for the build- ing of the road through their do- main to Globe, the matter of con- sent in favor of tho railroad com- pany on the amount to be paid to the Indians being discussed by the agent. The principal chiefs aud tho rep- resentatives of the railroad agreed upon the amount which the railroad will have to pay. It will be between $7,000 aud nO.UOO to the Indians as a tribe, with additional payment for anv damage done to cultivated lands, ditches, fences and roads. On Monday night loOO Indians were feasted by the railroad people, and a grand Apache Iadian dance was kept up all night. Train Wrecker Worden Confeoe. San Frencisco.Feb. 8. Salter D. Wordon, convicted of wrecking mail train bearing a guard of United States soldiers near Sacramento during the great railroad strike in 1894, and in whoso behalf the su- preme court of the United States declined to take favorable action on his plea fer a new trial, has con- fessed bis crime to Governor Budd, with view to recoiving commu- tation of the dea'h sentence from the executive of the state. Worden's confession covers 3,700 words and gives the full details ol crime, telling that he with several others had been ordered by com- mittee of strikers to remove the rails near tho Yolo bridge for the purpose of wreckijg the train car- rying troops. He gives the names of his accomplices aud makes known many details of the work of the strikers heretofore unknown to the geueral publio. Ex-Piesi- Cleveland inter- ested hitU5elf in Worden's behalf out of sympathy for the mother of the condemned man, and Governor Budd determined to probe the mat- ter to tho bottom befoio deciding the case, with the result that Wor-de- n made a couftssiou in the pres- ence of Warden Aull of Folsom peuiteutiary, and a stenographer.

I ' Tiro Men Killed In tho Copper Queen Mine at HiabcB. III--' A fatal accident occurred in the Copper Queen mine Friday ovening, about 5:30, which resulted in the death of two well known miners, E. C. Clark and W. S. Young. Tbo men were engaged in blasting and had loaded two holes aud lighted the fuses connecting the explosive materials. The first one burned, but the second one being in a damp spot gavo them same trouble, and while they were busied with it tho charge first lighted went off with terrible effect, horribly mangling tbo bodies of the two unfortunate men. Clark was instantly killed by tbo explosion. Young, with" a broken leg and cov-- 1 ered with wounds, with great effort managed to crawl out of the tunnel and was found au hour 'atr by Charles Warner in a dying condition. irle was uareiv able to loll of the accident, and was taken to the hos- pital, whore he died a few hours afterward. Both victims of tho itastrouhe wore well and favorably known tberc.atul their Had fate is much deplored by their large nuui-bu- r of friends. The iuueral was largely attended. Pheuix Herald.

Popular prices of admission prevail during tho Zamloch engagement and the Dako will undoubtedly be taxed to .its capacity Tuesday night. Piof. Zamloch ha) been receiving unlim- ited praise from press and public where ever he bfs played this season. The following notice is from tho Ventura Democrat, Nov. 12th: A crowded house greeted Zam- loch last evening at Armory hall, aud the entertainment furnished by this greatest of conjurers aud his tired comedian aud assistant, "Billy," was excellent throughout. Zamloch in his mar- velous mystifications, is the most successful operator of his class to- day, Iwirriug noue being au equai of the famous Herman, who Lis caused wonder among the people of all countries aud kingdoms. Zamloch is easy, graceful, cour- teous and humorous his very de- ception practiced with complete success. His illusions, to the au- dience, appear outside tro rauge of possibility and his exercise of the black art of necromancy is accom- plished without a pin head's chance of detection. He is charming in his manner and an eveuing passed in his presence, is one long to bo remembered. Tho presents given away are numerous and expeusive. Zola' Trial Occasion Kxelteiueiit. Pabis, Feb. 9.

One of ranker' Attorney File a Com. plaint Acalnat the Sheriff for U-l- ng- Befned to See 111 Client. There seems to be some friction between the sheriff's office and G. Arthur Allen, one of the attorneys for James Parker, according to an application filed in the district court today. Attorney Allen applies for a mandamus against tho sheriff to compel that official to permit him to visit his client iu the county jail for the purpose ot interviewing and counseling with him whenever either may desire to do so. Mr. Allen's attorneys are Eugene B. O'Neill, and District Attorney H. D. Ross and Deputy District Attor ney i. W. U bullivan. 1 he papers in case were served on Sheriff Ruffner this afternoon. Sheriff Ruffner could not be found by the looRNAL-MiNE- K representative, but Under Sheriff Dillon stated that J. E. Morrison, who is associated with Mr. Alleu, as counsel for Parker, bad free access to the jail and to his client whenever he wanted to go, but just why Mr. Allen was not allowed tho same privilege was not clearly stated, although it may be at the hearing. The date for the hearing of the application was not set, but will be hearti within the next ten days. The proceedings will be watched with interest, as the decision will determine just how far the authority of the sheriff may be exercised in his control of prisoners. Money Made Oulcbat Home.

DOrs gooj judgment of men and j demonstrates his determination to What Governor McCord Ha Accom- - get the best men possible. piuh.d Dunne nu sir Mouth j A stronger trait in Governor Mc-i- n offlc j Cord's character is to stand by his The Phenix Republican, in a re-- ! friends. It has even been said that view of tho first six months of Gov-- ! one f ns faults, if it is a fault, is McCord's of con-experie- have One the quarters the of in the experience of On tho 29th of July last, just six months ago, Governor McCord took the oath of office and entered upon the discharge of his duties. His enemies both in and out of his party predicted that his admin- istration would prove a failure and that six months would not elapse before even his friends would be compelled to acknowledge it. At that time the financial standing of the territory was at a low ebb and it was freely predicted It would soon be at a lower ebb. The public in- stitutions were run down and were, if possible, on a lower plane than tbo credit of the territory. Scarcely had he assumed the duties of his omce when demand made npon him .mitte tbegs to submit the to enforce a contract by i following report of all monetary predecessor for the working of f transactions of city for the convicts at tne prison, con- tract had been declared to be of binding force by the supreme court of the territory! and the appeal to the supreme court of the United States had been made in so bungling a manner that there was little doubt but that the case would be set aside as soon as reached by that tribunal. Governor McCord at once set him- self to try to secure certain modifi cations of the contract, which lie succeeded in doing and which made the contract, in the opinion of all unprejudiced minds, fair one, the enforcement of which would re- dound to tho credit of the territory. For the last three months the prisoners have been earning about $70 per day by working on the cans! payable in water rights. It is be- lieved these water rights will be worth par, but whether they are or not they will be worth something, and as it costs the territory no morn to work the prisoners than it does to maintain them in idleness and as the result of their labor will result in building a large canal that will bring under cultivation many thousands of acres of the finest lands in the territory, the result will be beneficial to the territory whether the water rights are valuable or not. As a result of this labor being per- formed by the prisoners million dollars worth of taxable property will at least be added to the rolls. When Governor McCord assumed control of affairs he found $20,393 of unpaid debts that bad been con tracted by predecessor that ought to have been paid. He found the public institutions run down to the lowest ebb and he found territo- rial warrants selling at 85 cents on the dollar and the market for them very poor. He found an issue ol $3U0.00U of territorial bonds on the market and hawked about in every broker's shop from St. Louis to Chicago and New York and even in London with no buyers. Governor Franklin made p to New York at the expense of the territory to sell the bonds, but did not sell them. Secretary Bruce made a trip to New York to sell the bonds, but did not sell them. Treas- urer Cole made a trip to New York at the expense of tho territory to sell the bonds, but did not sell them. Finally the bonds were sent to Lon- don and returned unsold at an ex- pense of over $lrS00 to the territory. In this attempt to sell the bonds $5,463 was expended. Soon after Governor McCord came in an offer was made to the loan commission to take this very issue of bonds at par and accrued interest by responsible parties and the bonds would have been sold had it not been for certain vexatious law suits instituted by parties who desired to ruin the credit of the territory by repudiating a part of its debts or the debts of certain counties which would have the same result. The supreme court of the terri tory has now decided that this very issue of the bonds is valid and the bonds are substantially sold and the transfer will soon be made. The expenses for running the ter ritorial government for the last six months, notwithstanding the $20,393 of old debts that came over from the Franklin administration, and notwithstanding the dilapidated condition of the public institutions, was several thousand dollars less than the prior six mouths. This is the result of economical business and honest methods inaugurated by Governor McCord. Now, aside from bringing economy and business methods to bear in the j deep in the city ally. He has aud even demanded prompt and ser- vice in all offices and from all offi cers ot the territory, iie has ap pointed worthy, honest and capable men to all positions under him. has lent his influence at all times to matters of public and especially to the cause of education, of which he has shown himself to be a friend. So far as is known he has not performed a single public act that will cot stand the closest scrutiny, no or newspaper has yet tried to point out one. Look at his public addresses, bemn- - ning with his inaugural and ' c,mnfrterway.,s MiJwf to the territory. :t"K."rr.coieD?

THE MAYOR'S

ANNUAL TALL

Mfssaga Submitted at the last jRejr-nla- r

Meetinp; of tlie CityCouncil.

Tlie Followingr was the Message De-

livered by the Mayor at theMeetiuir Mouday Nijrht.

Prescott, Ariz., Jan. 11, 1S9S.To the Members of the City Coun-

cil, Prescott, Ariz.Gentlemen: In pursuance with

the requirements of the City Char-ter. I hare the honor to submit foryour consideration tbo followingmessage, covering (1) the adminis-tration of city affairs duringthe year 1S97, and (2) such sugges-tions as I trust will be of value toyou during 1893.

The revenues of the citv during1S97, from all sources, were $21,525,-4- 2,

being an increase of $4,310.61over tho income of 1S9G, while theannual surplur, represented by cashin the city treasury at this date, is

4,237.62, as against S3.781.S6 sur-plus for 1896. As this increase inrevenue and surplus has been cre-ated without the slightest additionto tho tax or license rate, but by amore rigid enforcement of policeand other regulation?, I cannot butcongratulate you and tlie entirecorps of city officials on the show-iu- g

thus presented.While the surplus in tho city

treasury during the last year hasbeen increased, it has been done inthe face of extraordinary expendi-tures. These expenditures of anunusual character have been as fol-lows:

1. That occasioned by a thoroughand comprehensive investigation ofevery available means for increasingthe public water supply at a cost of5940.

2. The purchase and laying ofnew water mains, bvdrauts. etc. at acost of S2.910.10.

3. The installation of publicstreet lighting at a cost of S930.oO.

4. The survey and establishment on the principal streets of per-manent grades, with a view to thefuture improvement of such streets,at a cost of 5203.50.

While this has been done, the dis-

bursements for tho purchase of newequipment for the fire department,of a city safe and other property, inconstructing street crossings eta,have been unusually large.

Although the expenditures setforth above in the items coveringthe investigations for increasing thewater supply any surveys of streetsfor grading purposes, have beenmade solely to arrive at and presentto the public in an intelligent man-ner the cost and advantages of suchprojected works, the manner inwhich both projects have been re-

ceived by the public leaves but little doubt that such improvementswill bo accomplished facts beforethe close of the present year. Bothare urgently required, the. onlyproblem remaining is by whatmeans and the cheapest manner inin which each can be secured.

In additien to the exercise of thesame rigid economy which has char-acterized your official acts during1897, 1 deem it wise to suggest thatduring the present year every effortbe made by you,

1. To permantly Eettle tho question of future water supply ot thecity.

2. To thoroughly investigateand decide on the practicability ofa public sewerage system, and

6. To inaugurate an intelligentsystem of street grading, which isgreatly needed, and wmcn delayconstantly tends to make more coin-plicat- ed

and difficult of settlement.In endeavoring to carry these sug

gestions into effect T would advisethat every effort be made to securetho cc operation and assistance ofour fellow citizens bv inviting theiractive aid and advice. During thelast year they have shown a mostcommendable spirit toward aidingthe city government in advancingany measure that might benefit themunicipality. Everything possibleshould bo done to encourage thisfeeling and to remove tho erroneousbut too prevalent idea that, onceelected, the duties and obligationsof the voter ceases toward publicofficials, and instead everv citizenshould be made to feel that such of--1

ficials constitute merely the machin-ery to carry into effect'tue policiesmost advantageous to all, aud in theshaping of which policies tho bestresults can only be secured by everycitizen taking a vigilant and activointerest in publio affairs no matterhow seemingly small such affairsmay be.

"With a view to promoting moregeneral and universal interest in thecity's political well-bein- g, not theleast accomplished during the year1S97, were the amendments securedby legislative enactment to the citycharter, which provide:

1. For granting tho right of sui- -frage to all taxpavers without regard to sex.

2. For making all officersve instead of appointive, as

previouslv been the case, aud3. For requiring any ordinance

or act of the city council to bo submitted for ratification or rejection

"A. P. Smith reports that when heandhis companions wore on thoirway out from Dawson, they wituessed the most beautiful sight heever saw in tno Heavens. It was inNovember, aud he said that the sunwould barely show itself above thehorizon till it would again retreatbelow it and ramain hidden for twenty--

one or twenty-tw-o hours. Day,including twilight, would last onlyabout three or four hours. In theearly morning hours, on severalnights, ho said, most brilliant 1 ight,of various hues, occurred in theheavens. He said he could describeit only as having the appearance ofan immense umbrella, with ita tau-ter directly overhead and ita sidesextending down in streams of lightto within a short distance of thehorizon. 1 ho outer edges of it werenot even, but appeared just liko thoribs of au umbrella with the slightlycurving edge ot tne cioin Deiweenthem, only that the entire thing wascomposed of streaks of light. Atfirst thev went unable to account for

jit, but its repetition on several days,jusr, ueiore ine oreas oi uay, nnauyconvinced them that tho singularlybeautiful phenomenon was uoneother than the Aurora Boreal is, orwhat is known as northern lights.Mr. Smith said he had frequentlyseen this phenomenon at his oldIndiana notno, out seeing only asmall portion of it, there was nocomparison to it as witnessed nearthe Arctic Circle, whore they were atthe time.

Speaking of the native dogs usedin transportation in that country, hesays that they do not know anythingbut work. That they have none ofthe instincts or nature of domesticanimal found in lower latitudes andhave no special affection for theirmaster or owner more than for anentiro stranger. They are gooduatured and work well, out arefriendly to every one. They have tobe coustantlv chained up, though,to proveut them from running away,as he says thoy are smart enough torealize tnat their lot is to andtry to eecapo ft whenever opportunity presf nts itelf.

A crowded house greeted Zam-loch last evening at Armory hall,aud the entertainment furnished bythis greatest of conjurers aud his

On tho 29th of July last, just sixmonths ago, Governor McCord tookthe oath of office and entered uponthe discharge of his duties.

His enemies both in and out ofhis party predicted that his admin-istration would prove a failure andthat six months would not elapsebefore even his friends wouldbe compelled to acknowledge it. Atthat time the financial standing ofthe territory was at a low ebb and itwas freely predicted It would soonbe at a lower ebb. The public in-stitutions were run down and were,if possible, on a lower plane than tbocredit of the territory. Scarcely hadhe assumed the duties of his omcewhen demand made npon him .mitte tbegs to submit theto enforce a contract by i following report of all monetarypredecessor for the working of f transactions of city for theconvicts at tne prison, con-tract had been declared to be ofbinding force by the supreme courtof the territory! and the appeal tothe supreme court of the UnitedStates had been made in so bunglinga manner that there was little doubtbut that the case would be set asideas soon as reached by that tribunal.Governor McCord at once set him-self to try to secure certain modifications of the contract, which liesucceeded in doing and which madethe contract, in the opinion of allunprejudiced minds, fair one, theenforcement of which would re-dound to tho credit of the territory.

For the last three months theprisoners have been earning about$70 per day by working on the cans!payable in water rights. It is be-lieved these water rights will beworth par, but whether they are ornot they will be worth something,and as it costs the territory nomorn to work the prisoners than itdoes to maintain them in idlenessand as the result of their labor willresult in building a large canal thatwill bring under cultivation manythousands of acres of the finest landsin the territory, the result will bebeneficial to the territory whetherthe water rights are valuable or not.As a result of this labor being per-formed by the prisoners milliondollars worth of taxable propertywill at least be added to therolls.

When Governor McCord assumedcontrol of affairs he found $20,393 ofunpaid debts that bad been contracted by predecessor thatought to have been paid. He foundthe public institutions run down tothe lowest ebb and he found territo-rial warrants selling at 85 cents onthe dollar and the market for themvery poor.

He found an issue ol $3U0.00U ofterritorial bonds on the market andhawked about in every broker's shopfrom St. Louis to Chicago and NewYork and even in London with nobuyers. Governor Franklin made p

to New York at the expense ofthe territory to sell the bonds, butdid not sell them. Secretary Brucemade a trip to New York to sell thebonds, but did not sell them. Treas-urer Cole made a trip to New Yorkat the expense of tho territory tosell the bonds, but did not sell them.Finally the bonds were sent to Lon-don and returned unsold at an ex-

pense of over $lrS00 to the territory.In this attempt to sell the bonds$5,463 was expended.

Soon after Governor McCord camein an offer was made to the loancommission to take this very issue ofbonds at par and accrued interestby responsible parties and the bondswould have been sold had it notbeen for certain vexatious law suitsinstituted by parties who desired toruin the credit of the territory byrepudiating a part of its debts orthe debts of certain counties whichwould have the same result.

The supreme court of the territory has now decided that this veryissue of the bonds is valid and thebonds are substantially sold and thetransfer will soon be made.

The expenses for running the territorial government for the last sixmonths, notwithstanding the $20,393of old debts that came over fromthe Franklin administration, andnotwithstanding the dilapidatedcondition of the public institutions,was several thousand dollars lessthan the prior six mouths. This isthe result of economical businessand honest methods inaugurated byGovernor McCord.

Now, aside from bringing economyand business methods to bear in the
